Update List library Column using MS Flow

I have list library with Column Status, and i want to update another column Status_archive with value same as status whenever new item added in list library or modified existing list library item using MS Flow..

 

I found steps :-which is specific to list items ,"when an item is created or modified"

 

but not able to find any action in MS flow for "list library item created or Modified"

 

how i can trigger any action when library item created or modified using MS flow?

    rautchetan27 a couple of options for libraries:

     

    1) you can use the When an item is created or modified trigger but it won't show you the library in the dropdown, you need to click on "Enter custom value" then type in the name of your library. It will find it with no problem and will add in the columns from the library.

     

    2) or you can use the When a file is created or modified (properties only) trigger.

     

    (PS:  there's no such thing as a list library in SharePoint, you have lists and you have libraries).
